A green monster that is! I love making these smoothies and love how you can pack great nutrition into something that tastes great! And since I had a little extra time this morning I decided to serve up my smoothie in a little nicer stem ware. I love drinking water or diet soda in wine glasses. It’s just so fun!
So, this morning, I spent a few hours at the eye doctor trying to get some new glasses. I picked out a cute pair of frames and can’t wait until their ready for me to pick up. They said it could take up to 10 days…crap! I really thought I’d have them quicker, maybe I’ll be surprised and they’ll arrive quickly!
So, I’ll jump right into it….here are today’s eats.

So, now I’m just watching The Real Housewives of the O.C. reunion show…love it! And then I’m off to bed. Night y’all.
